Starting off correctly

Funny, when I got into php I had already begun designs on trulybizarre.co.uk, and everything that has stemmed from that has been learnt as I go.

Now, with a bit of experience behind me I'm planning another site. I'm in the planning stage, and was wondering from a php point-of-view, what sort of things should you look to do before beginning to code a site?

Two things my (limited) experience suggest I should do are:
1) Keep my coding consistent (something I know I've not done to this point, especially in regard to connecting to databases).
2) When I work with Sessions I'll probably make more use of the <?=SID?> line in links, so that users don't have to use cookies.

Anything else?

i suggest a graphical outline of everything you intend to do before you start a script so you know where your going the entire way....
